Dornhan

Dornhan is situated on a plateau in the Black Forest foothills above the valleys of Neckar and Glatt.

Dornhan borders in the east on Sulz am Neckar, in the south on Oberndorf (both county of Rottweil), in the west on Alpirsbach and Loßburg and in the north on Glatten and Schopfloch (all Freudenstadt (district)).

[4] The monastery gained more and more influence in Dornhan in the course of time and maintained a nursing home to administer the property.

The abbot of Alpirsbach monastery had a court held in Dornhan three times a year, either personally or through a deputy.

Because of his high debts, Duke Friedrich von Teck ceded the bailiwick rights to Count Eberhard den Greiner in 1380 and thus to Württemberg.

[8] Since 1994, Dornhan has maintained partnership relations with the French community Pont-de-Vaux in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region.

In Bettenhausen there is also a portrait of the risen Christ in the church of St. Konrad, which Hans Marx von Bubenhofen donated in 1596.

The grave of Count Albrecht II of Hohenberg and his second wife Margareta of Fürstenberg is in Kirchberg Monastery near Sulz am Neckar.

In the district of Weiden there is a church from the 15th century and the birthplace of Hermann Römpp as well as the primary school, which is already over 100 years old.
